From the reviews
Loving this gym so far! Killer workout and a great way to challenge yourself. Staff is super friendly and welcoming. Thanks TRC!
This is a great way to get a full body workout and have fun while doing it! Memberships are expensive, but they offer day passes and 10 punch passes that are great options for anyone who isn't expecting to go frequently.
